were the Portuguese at
the beginning of the
sixteenth century
17. The Dutch who settled in the island in 1598 named it
Mauritius after Prince Maurice of Nassau.
Among other things, the Dutch introduced sugar cane and
the Java deer before leaving in 1710 where they had found
in the mean time a far better settling place
The Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. About five years
later, in 1715, the French occupied the island, renaming it
"Isle de France".
It was under the French Governor, Mahé de Labourdonnais,
that Mauritius knew its first development: a harbour was
built. Port Louis, named after the ruling king Louis XV,
became the capital of Mauritius.

25. History of Singapore
The world's busiest port,
the modern nation of the
Republic of Singapore,
was founded as a British
trading post on the
Strait of Malacca in
1819.
26. Tourism had been an important sector of Singapore's
economy for more than a decade, averaging 16 percent of
total foreign exchange earnings and 6 percent of GDP
between 1980 and 1985. Tourist arrivals had dropped sharply
in 1983, however, the first decline in over twenty years. The
decrease resulted both from the regional and world economic
downturn at that time and from travel restrictions instituted
by neighboring countries to preserve their own foreign
exchange. Observers noted also that Singapore was losing
its "oriental mystique and charm." In its effort to build a
modern city, it had torn down old buildings and curtailed
traditional street activities, aspects considered by tourists to
be part of Singapore's attraction
Although increasing the absolute number of visitor arrivals
was the main target, a further aim was to attract the high-spending,
business visitors attending conventions and trade
exhibitions, which Singapore hosted in large numbers.

37. History Of Malaysia
Malaysia's history starts
generally around the
establishment of the
Malacca sultanate. During
the 13th century, it was
renowned as a major port
for traders from both east
and west.
38. The history of Malaysia is a relatively recent offshoot of the
history of the wider Malay-Indonesian world”. It is so because
anthropologists and historians could see very little aspects
culturally and linguistically, to distinguish today’s Malaysian
territories from the lands of the Malay Archipelago. According
to their research, today’s division of the Malay world into six
different states-- Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Singapore,
Brunei and East Timor – is largely the result of external
influences, like the Hindu India, the Islamic Middle East and
Christian Europe (west), China and Japan (north-east).
Besides, the most direct shipping route passing through the
Strait of Malacca, Malaysia has naturally been a melting pot
of trade routes and cultures. Thus, it has been found out that
the geographical position of Malaysia has literally made it
difficult for the Malay people to resist foreign influence and
domination.

93. Chicago convention
The Convention on International Civil Aviation, also known as the Chicago
Convention, established the International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO), a specialized agency of the United Nations charged with coordinating
and regulating international air travel. The Convention establishes rules of
airspace, aircraft registration and safety, and details the rights of the
signatories in relation to air travel. The Convention also exempts air fuels from
tax.
The document was signed on December7, 1944 in Chicago, Illinois, by 52
signatory states. It received the requisite 26th ratification on March 5, 1947
and went into effect on April 4,1947, the same date that ICAO came into
being. In October of the same year, ICAO became a specialized agency of the
United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). The Convention has
since been revised eight times (in 1959, 1963, 1969, 1975, 1980, 1997, 2000
and 2006). Links to all versions of the document can be found in the external
links section.
The original signed document resides in the National Archives of United
States.

98. Warsaw Convention.
The Warsaw Convention is an international
convention which regulates liability for international
carriage of persons, luggage or goods performed by
aircraft for reward.
Originally signed in 1929 in Warsaw (hence the name),
it was amended in 1955 at The Hague and in 1975 in
Montreal. United States courts have held that, at least
for some purposes, the Warsaw Convention is a
different instrument from the Warsaw Convention as
Amended by the Hague Protocol.
99. In particular, the Warsaw Convention:
mandates carriers to issue passenger tickets;
requires carriers to issue baggage checks for checked
luggage;
creates a limitation period of 2 years within which a
claim must be brought (Article 29); and
limits a carrier's liability to at most:
250,000 Francs or 16,600 Special Drawing Rights (SDR)
for personal injury;
17 SDR per Kilogram for checked luggage and cargo,
5,000 Francs or 332 SDR for the hand luggage of a
traveler.
100. The sums limiting liability were originally given in Francs
(defined in terms of a particular quantity of gold by article 22
paragraph 5 of the convention). These sums were amended by
the Montreal Additional Protocol No. 2 to substitute an
expression given in terms of SDR's. These sums are valid in
the absence of a differing agreement (on a higher sum) with
the carrier. Agreements on lower sums are null and void.
On April 1,2007, the exchange rate was 1.00 SDR = 1.135
EUR or 1.00 SDR = 1.51 USD.
A court may also award a claiming party's costs, unless the
carrier made an offer within 6 months of the loss (or at least 6
months before the beginning of any legal proceedings) which
the claiming party has failed to beat.
The Montreal Convention, signed in 1999, will replace the
Warsaw Convention system, once Montreal has been ratified
by all states. Until then, however, there will be a patchwork of
rules governing international carriage by air, as different states
will be parties to different agreements (or no agreement at all).
101. How travel organizations helps the
Industry and tourists?
1. International Air Transport Association
(IATA).
2. Universal Federation of Travel Agent’s
Association (UFTAA).
102. International Air Transport
Association(IATA).
Air transport is one of the most dynamic industries in the world. The
International Air Transport Association (IATA) is its global trade
organization.
Over 60 years, IATA has developed the commercial standards that built a
global industry. Today, IATA’s mission is to represent, lead and serve the
airline industry. Its members comprise some 230 airlines - the world’s
leading passenger and cargo airlines among them - representing 93 percent
of scheduled international air traffic.
IATA seeks to improve understanding of the industry among decision makers
and increase awareness of the benefits that aviation brings to national and
global economies. It fights for the interests of airlines across the globe,
challenging unreasonable rules and charges, holding regulators and
governments to account, and striving for sensible regulation.
IATA’s aim is to help airlines help themselves by simplifying processes and
increasing passenger convenience while reducing costs and improving
efficiency. The groundbreaking Simplifying the Business initiative is crucial
in this area. Moreover, safety is IATA’s number one priority, and IATA’s
goal is to continually improve safety standards, notably through IATA’s
Operational Safety Audit (IOSA). Another main concern is to minimise the
impact of air transport on environment.
103. IATA ensures that people and goods can move around
the global airline network as easily as if they were on
a single airline in a single country. In addition, it
provides essential professional support to all industry
stakeholders with a wide range of products and expert
services, such as publications, training and
consulting. IATA’s financial systems also help
carriers and the travel industry maximise revenues.
For consumers, IATA simplifies the travel and
shipping processes, while keeping costs down.
Passengers can make one telephone call to reserve a
ticket, pay in one currency and then use the ticket on
several airlines in several countries.
IATA allows airlines to operate safely, securely,
efficiently and economically under clearly defined
rules.
104. IATA serves as an intermediary between airlines and
passenger as well as cargo agents via neutrally
applied agency service standards and centralised
financial systems.
A large network of industry suppliers and service
providers gathered by IATA provides solid expertise
to airlines in a variety of industry solutions.
For governments, IATA seeks to ensure they are
well informed about the complexities of the aviation
industry to ensure better, long-term decisions
IATA's goal is to help its Members provide a
seamless travel experience to their customers. As
today's business is driven by consumer expectations,
our challenge is to meet those expectations in a
financially sustainable business environment.
105. E-ticketing (ET) is one of the Simplifying The
Business initiatives with the most significant opportunities to
reduce costs and improve passenger convenience. It reduces
ticket processing charges, eliminates the need for paper and
allows greater flexibility to the passenger and the travel agent
to make changes to the itinerary.
The Simplifying Passenger Travel (SPT) Program is an
initiative that focuses on the passenger and facilitating their
journey while emphasizing the security benefits of processing
'known' passengers automatically, thereby freeing-up
resources to concentrate on 'unknown' passengers.
The aim is to improve the passenger travel experience by
replacing repetitive checks of passengers and their documents
with a new streamlined system. The new system will collect
the information once and then share it electronically with
subsequent service providers to clear the passenger through
their entire journey.
106. The SPT Program has built a unique multi-sectoral
membership consisting of airlines, airports, control
authorities and technology suppliers, all working
towards the common goal of bringing the vison of
"simplified and secure passenger processing" to
reality.
This will provide:
1. hassle free travel for passengers
2. easier pre-travel procedures for travel agents
3. streamlined processing for airlines
4. better use of resources by airports
5. efficient and secure transportation for governments
107. IATA was instrumental in developing the first version of the
passenger ticket
During the 1920s, each airline used a different form of the
passenger ticket with no standard conditions of carriage
The industry recognised need for standardisation of traffic
documents, regulations and procedures
It became the main focus of the IATA Traffic Committee
which developed the standard ticket for multiple trips (1930)
Warsaw Convention (signed in 1929 implemented in 1933)
established the conditions of international air transportation
documents and carrier liability
IATA developed a neutral paper ticket in 1972 to support the
global distribution system that is prevalent today – more than
60,000 travel agents around the world
This is what is being eliminated by the industry
108. In 1983 IATA established the Automated Ticket and
Boarding Pass (ATB)
It allowed information to be printed on the face of the ticket and
encoded on a magnetic stripe on the back which could be easily read
by computer
Montreal Convention of 1999 replaced the Warsaw
Convention introducing the concept of unlimited liability
Around the same time document requirements for passenger,
baggage and cargo
were simplified to take advantage of new information technologies
became basic foundation for the development and global
implementation of the electronic ticket
Financial Services:
1. Efficient and cost-effective management of revenues and cash
is essential for the financial health of your organization.
2. With IATA, you benefit from the unique strengths of our
financial settlement systems established for the industry.
109. Universal Federation of Travel
Agent’s Association (UFTAA).
The United Federation of Travel Agents’ Associations (UFTAA) emanates
from the Universal Federation of Travel Agents’ Associations created in
Rome, Italy, on November 22nd, 1966. UFTAA was originally founded as
a result of a merger of two large world organizations, FIAV and UOTAA,
recognizing the need to unify travel agencies and tour-operators into one
international federation.
In 1989, coming from Brussels, UFTAA set up its General Secretariat in
the Principality of Monaco.
UFTAA started its operation as a Confederation on January 1st, 2003. It is
a non-profit Confederation of international scope, representing Regional
Federations comprising some 80 national associations.
110. UFTAA is a world body representing the travel agency and
tourism industry. UFTAA effectively represents Travel Agents
and Tour Operators views on both Inbound and Outbound
travel by continuous dialogue and consultation with other
international organisations such as the International Air
Transport Association (IATA), the International Hotel and
Restaurant Association (IH&RA) the International Union of
Railways (IUR), the International Road Union (IRU), and the
International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) to mention only a
few. UFTAA has consultative status with the
UN/NGO/ECOSOC, and works closely with other world
bodies such as UNESCO, WHO etc for a sustainable and
responsible tourism. UFTAA is an affiliate member of the
World Tourism Organisation (WTO) and its Business Council
(WTOBC).).
111. UFTAA’s mission is to be an international forum where
matters affecting the world travel industry are addressed,
representing and defending the interests of incoming and
outgoing tour operators, travel and tourism agencies before the
governmental bodies, suppliers and other entities of
international scope. It also aims at strengthening its members’
image and enhance the world travel and tourism industry and a
sustainable tourism.
- To comply with its mission, the Confederation develops the
following functions :
- To unite and consolidate the Federations of Travel Agents’
National Associations and to globally enhance the interests of
their members ;
- To represent the travel agents’ activities before various
world-wide bodies, governmental authorities and suppliers ;
-
112. To work towards the adoption of measures that will
ease travel for the consumer and to offer services to
its member federations ;
- To be an investigation and information centre
supporting the member Federations’ work and to
offer information for technological development ;
- To offer, as a voluntary mechanism, an arbitration
service which assists in solving conflicts resulting
from commercial relations for which amicable
settlement cannot be reached ;
- To organise a world congress of travel agents and
other meetings necessary to the exchange and
transmission of knowledge.

Vlihada Beach
119. Acropolis of Athens
The stunning rock defines the city and is the main attraction when it comes
to things to do in Greece.
The Acropolis in Athens is the most famous acropolis in Greece, and the
entire world, for that matter.
Things to consider at the Acropolis are the fact that you have to check any
bag you are carrying before entering, and during the summer it can get
pretty warm on the Acropolis during the peak daytime hours.
120. Red Beach
The Red Beach found on the Greek island of Santorini is a
mesmerizing stretch of red sand that is set against a truly
stunning backdrop of scaling red cliffs.
The crystal-clear blue waters of the Aegean Sea uniquely
contrast the stunning red-colored sands, all set against a
prolific cliff background.
121. Temple of Zeus
The Temple of Zeus in Athens is located near the center of the city, just
about a quarter of a mile to the southeast of the Acropolis, and within a
quarter mile south of Syntagma Square and the Parliament Building.
An interesting note in the history of the temple of Zeus is that Hadrian,
upon dedicating the temple to Zeus, erected two large statues in the center
of the building. Both were large and one depicted Zeus, the other one
Hadrian himself.
122. Plaka Market
The Plaka in Athens, is the city’s oldest
neighborhood, and most of it has been relegated to
foot traffic.
Although every day shopping in Plaka is a good day,
Sundays are when the masses arrive.

On the Island of Santorini, the stunning vistas and
relaxing beaches are mostly what attract visitors to
this highly popular vacation destination
Vlihada is a small, coastal village that can be found
on the southern side of the island
124. Spain
The history of Spanish people is a
mixture of the Roman, Moslem,
Greek, Phoenician, and North
African people that have, at one
time or another throughout
history, called the Iberian
Peninsula home. With access to
both the Mediterranean Sea and
the Atlantic Ocean, present-day
Spain (which shares the Iberian
Peninsula with Portugal) was a
vital trading link and entry point
into both northern Africa and
Southern Europe. The history of
Spain has been influenced
tremendously by this cross current
of ethnicities and religions
126. Picasso Museum
The Picasso Museum highlights include: Picasso’s childhood drawings
made in La Coruna between the ages of 10 and 14, his blue period
paintings, and his 44 cubist Las Meninas studies.
Barcelona’s Picasso Museum is composed largely from the private
collection of the artist’s longtime friend, Jaime Sabartes.
127. Pamplona
The running of the bulls in Pamplona Spain was first made
famous in Ernest Hemingway’s novel The Sun Also Rises.
Since then, tourists have flocked to the Basque town of
Pamplona Spain every June to sing, dance, drink, and careen
down the town’s cobbled streets with a herd of angry and
confused bulls charging behind them during the running of the
bulls Pamplona.
128. Guell Park
Park Guell Barcelona is the perfect setting to enjoy a cold
drink, play a game of Frisbee, or simply take in the fabulous

Perched atop a rocky mountain and surrounded by yellow
hillsides, the medieval city Toledo Spain is one of the oldest
towns on the Iberian Peninsula, and a perfect day trip
More than religious architecture, Toledo is known for the
imposing Alcazar fortress.
131. Italy
For thousands of years, Italy has
been at the forefront of modern
culture. The birthplace of the
Roman Empire and fountainhead
of the Renaissance, Italy has
retained a prominent spot atop the
global radar since long before the
time of Caesar.
Giuseppe Garibaldi formed the
current kingdom of Italy in 1861,
but the roots of Italian history date
back to a largely undocumented
tribe called the Etruscans.
132. Attractions
Leaning Tower of Pisa
Vatican museum
Italian Opera
Piazza Navona
Mount Etna Volcano
133. Leaning Tower of Pisa
The Tower of Pisa is the bell tower of the Cathedral. Its construction began
in the august of 1173 and continued (with two long interruptions) for about
two hundred years, in full fidelity to the original project, whose architect is
still uncertain.
Both because of its inclination, and its beauty, from 1173 up to the present
the Tower has been the object of very special attention.
134. Vatican museum
Located on the north side of Vatican City, a spiral ramp leads visitors
inside the Vatican museum, a haphazard array of corridors and papal
spaces.
Even though the Renaissance paintings garner much of the praise heaped
on the museum, the Vatican library holds an impressive and enchanting
collection of crumbling documents, medieval treaties and antique books.
135. Italian Opera
The history of Italian opera is forever interwoven with the aristocratic
leaders of the time - the musical form was derived from courtly
entertainment in palaces all over the world and originally conceived as a
recreational activity performed for only the very wealth
Many Italian opera houses built during this time still exist today, and most
of them still hold performances on a regular basis.
136. Piazza Navona
Piazza Navona Rome is one of the finest squares found in all
of the city, and anywhere else, for that matter.
Three magnificent fountains occupy the Navona Square, built
upon the ruins of the first century Stadium of Domition.
This explains its long, oval shape and it is a place where
ancient Romans used to watch a variety of games and races.
137. Mount Etna Volcano
Standing at almost 11,000 feet, Mount Etna dominates the Sicilian skyline,
a vague threat situated near the island's eastern coast.
This is the most active volcano in the world.
The ancient Greeks believed it to be the home of Vulcan, the god of fire -
to them, Mount Etna erupting merely meant Vulcan was forging weapons
for Mars, the god of war
138. France
France is an independent nation in
Western Europe and the center of
a large overseas administration. It
is the third-largest European
nation (after Russia and Ukraine).
Since the 17th century, France has
played a major role in European
and world events.
In the 20th century, it has
experienced numerous crises,
including the devastation of two
world wars, political and social
upheavals, and the loss of a large
empire in Indochina, Algeria, and
West and Equatorial Africa

the centennial celebration of the French revolution.
141. Disneyland
Disneyland Resort Paris, originally known as Euro Disney, is a theme park
run by Euro Disney SCA, 39% of which is owned by The Walt Disney
Company, in Marne-la-Vallée near Paris
The park also has its own train station where the TGV (named Thalys when
coming from Brussels) stops and its own RER (commuter train) station, so
when visiting Paris you can hop on the RER and stop right in the park.
142. Flea Market
In French "aux Marche Puces de St Ouen" or if we
want the real French spelling "aux Marché Puces de
St Ouen". Probably the greatest antique market in the
world.
143. Versailles and its Chateau

No compulsory vaccinations and
immunizations needed
148. France
A valid passport up to 3 months from the
expiry of the visa
Schengen Visa
No compulsory vaccination and immunization
needed
149. Reason why less documents are
needed for these countries:
Countries that we have selected
Greece,Spain,Italy and France needs only few
documents to travel because we are carrying a
common visa that is Schengen Visa instead of
carrying individual Visa’s for each country.
A Schengen visa allows the holder to travel
freely within the Schengen countries for a
maximum stay of up to 90 days in a 6 month
period.
150. Schengen Visa
The Schengen Visa has made traveling between its 15 European
member countries much easier and less bureaucratic. Traveling
on a Schengen Visa means that the visa holder can travel to
any (or all) member countries using one single visa, thus
avoiding the hassle and expense of obtaining individual visas
for each country. This is particularly beneficial for persons
who wish to visit several European countries on the same trip.
The Schengen visa is a “visitor visa”. It is issued to citizens of
countries who are required to obtain a visa before entering
Europe.
The purpose of the visit must be leisure, tourism, or business.
Upon the issuance of the visa, the visa holder is allowed to
enter all member countries and travel freely throughout the
Schengen area.
